    We already paid $75 million to Mexico for them to secure their southern border. It is not working so we are going to secure our southern border.

    Hello my:

    But, that was Obama..  He's a lib. He doesn't know how to spend money.  Obama's cash probably got stolen..  So, that money is gone..

    Clearly, Trump won't get hornswaggled like Obama did, so the question still is, should Trump build a 4,000 mile wall, or a 1,000 mile wall?

    We gave Mexico enough money. If you want it done right, do it yourself.

  • That is not our border of course and makes no difference who they are or where they come from, they run across the border they are illegal aliens. Key word being illegal.

    Hello Swoop:

    It's true, but so what? Trump has buildings ALL over the world.  He knows how to make deals with foreigners.  Look, it's a matter of math..  A 4,000 mile wall will cost about $8 billion.  A 1,000 mile wall will cost about $2 billion...  With Trumps business skills, I'll bet he can LEASE their entire border for another $2 billion, put the Trump sign on it, and save the taxpayers (you and me) round $4 billion.  That ain't hay.

    We can't control borders which are not ours.  Mexico has already built a wall on their Southern border.
